In one sequence of pitches on Saturday, Greinke
followed a 96 mph fastball with a 69 mph
curveball. Tony Randazzo, the home plate umpire, remarked to Olivo in the middle innings, “He’s got good stuff.” “I hope he goes to the ninth inning,” Olivo replied. Sure enough, with his pitch count ...

Zack Greinke and the trading block

... . (On June 16, the first 20,000 fans at Kauffman Stadium receive the spectacular t-shirt pictured above. Why wouldn't you go? That's clearly road-trip worthy).

Zack Greinke Is The Ace of T-Shirts
Intentional Foul —
Somehow, this little gem slipped under my radar until TBL’s daily baseball post. Kind of sad for a KC resident, I know, but you can blame the NBA Playoffs for my ignorance. I only have time for one or two sports obsessions at a time. Nevertheless, it’s fitting the day after Greinke single-handedly continues to salvage the Royals season worked his record to 8-1 is when my ignorance was erased. Unfortunately, the Greinke shirts won’t be on sale at this time. They are part of the Royals’ give-away promotion, and are schedule to be handed out to the first 20,000 attendees on June 16. ...

Winning with the Rest
baseballmusings.com 5/27/2009 — Sam Mellinger makes a very good point about the Royals and Zack Greinke :
Greinke games are a well-deserved escape from reality for Royals fans, the semi-regular reward for living through the last 15 years.
